It has been used since ancient times to regulate sexual function through food supplement, but it has not been confirmed by scientific research on sex. Let's take a look at the role of food in this regard from the perspective of maintaining and regulating sexual function on the basis of traditional view:
1. High-quality protein: It contains amino acids (such as arginine) involved in the formation of germ cells, mainly from eggs, milk, fish, lean meat and other foods;
2. Dietary cholesterol: to some extent, it is involved in the composition of sexual hormones, mainly from animal viscera (such as dog kidney, bullwhip, chicken liver, sheep kidney, etc.) and egg yolk;
3. Dietary fat: When you eat the foods rich in cholesterol, you can also eat a large amount of fat, which contains essential fatty acids required for sperm production. Long-term vegetarians may affect the conversion of sex hormones, cause sexual desire decline, and affect sperm production.
4. Some trace elements and minerals, such as iron, zinc, calcium, etc. Severe zinc deficiency can lead to immature sexual organ development, decreased sperm count, increased deformity rate, decreased sexual desire, and even infertility. Oysters, animal viscera, lean meat, milk and other foods are good sources of zinc.
5. Some vitamins, such as vitamin A and vitamin E, have the effect of delaying the decline of sexual function, and vitamin E is conducive to sperm production and improving sperm activity. Vitamin A mainly comes from animal liver, as well as carrots, pumpkins, sweet potatoes and tomatoes; Vitamin E mainly comes from egg yolks, beans, sesame seeds, peanuts and vegetable oils.
6. Nucleic acid: It is believed to have the function of nourishing yin essence, mainly from animal viscera, sardine, salmon, shrimp, clams, oysters, asparagus, nuts, wheat germ, radish, beets, etc.
For those with healthy sexual function, eating three meals a day is the best nutrition supplement; For those who have decreased sexual function or are a little older, try to eat animal liver once a week, seafood once a week, and some "aphrodisiac" products such as mutton, deer antler, hippocampus, etc. in an appropriate amount. Sex may have a satisfactory effect.
